When my heart is alone

Inspirational poem - listening to God's small still voice.

Sometimes my heart is alone
Sometimes I feel a disquiet deep within
I feel alone deep within
I speak to friends
I speak to family
But my heart still feels alone

Sometimes I feel alone

Even in the midst of work
In the midst of friends
In the midst of family
This disquiet deep within me
And I wonder why

But then I whisper a prayer to God

Well, maybe a conversation
I whisper in my heart
God, why am I alone?
Where is your spirit?
Where is my spirit?

And I think. I know I hear a whisper

I hear a small still voice that says
That lonely time
That quiet time
Is your time to be still and know
It's your time to listen
It's your time for inspiration

And so I listen

Deep within
For that small still voice
For that spirit of conviction
For the training and chastising
For the love and encouragement
For the haven, and safety
And you know, I hear it
And I grow
In that small still voice
I hear it.

Your words are uplifting, Sola. I know my inner voice is not coming from me. It's too comforting, too smart, and too loving. Once I find the frequency it's coming in on, I'll trace it back to its source. If I find Ron at the controls, we're all in big trouble. :)

I enjoy being alone. But then, I'm never really alone because my thoughts are continually talking to me and give me ideas to write down. That still small voice is only me, talking to me, myself and I. And I'm not crazy.

An excellent write on solitude and its many benefits which I enjoyed reading, Sola. Many people in today's world find solitude threatening and unacceptable, but as your words make very clear, this is where we find ourselves and hear the voice of God. Good work.

In the Whirlwind by Tichaona Chinyelu

In the Whirlwind is a poetic storm that frees history from the cages of corruption and puts it in the hands of everyday people. Words are weaved into a new fashion statement that has nothing to do with runways but everything to do with projects!
